10/15/23 - I think it’s most girl’s dreams to become the girl in this scenario.
A compilation of how parents deal with brats:
“Over Independence Day Weekend, I took my kid to the Sichuan Cuisine Museum. A kid was being really annoying there, and his dad yanked him over, got up in his face, and asked, “Do you want to die here today?”
“One time, the plane was getting ready to land, and I was going around reminding a little kid to sit down and fasten his seatbelt. The brat wouldn’t do it. He was crying and screaming and throwing a fit. Me and the head stewardess were ready to go in for the long haul trying to persuade him. But the kid’s dad turned out to be an air marshal. He grabbed the kid and threw him into his seat and slapped him across the face twice. The head stewards and I were both just shocked. Didn’t know whether to leave or stay T_T”
“I was interning in the Paediatrics ward, and there was a super loud brat. Even his mom couldn’t stand how loud he was being. She very gently told him to quiet down. Then his mom took him over to the lockers and locked him inside. Then she smiled at us and said he needed a moment to calm down.”
“Was riding the train, there was a kid fighting with his sister. The sister told him very gently, “If you keep being like this, I’m going to beat you up when we get home.” Really, she had a smile and her voice was super sweet and everything. If it wasn’t for the material of what she said, I wouldn’t have even realised it was a threat. And then her brother instantly calmed down and didn’t make another peep.”
“Whenever my son starts throwing a fit, I would sarcastically tell him, “You know, son, in order for there to exist a gentle mom, there has to be an obedient kid. There’s a lot of people here. I dont want to beat you up. I’m repeating myself one last time, don’t waste any more of my time :)” It works every time, because he knows I’ll beat the shit out of him.”
“Went back home for Independence Day, and while I was out walking my dog, a little girl twisted herself all up and kept saying, “scary scary scary scary~” And her mom snapped at her like, “The fuck is there to be scared of? That lady’s holding onto her dog. It’s like two blocks away from you, what the fuck are you scared of?” And she rolled her eyes. Hahahahaha, at that moment, I just felt so cathartic.”
“Last year, I went to a water park. While I was standing in line to pay, there was a little boy next to me who was so excited that he was climbing up and down the railing. His mom kept telling him to calm down, but he wouldn’t listen. Finally, she got mad and said, “Don’t make me slap you on such a happy occasion.” The kid instantly quieted down.”
“I was lucky enough to experience this once. In a quiet restaurant, there was a kid beating on his bowl super loudly nonstop. The mom gently told him to quiet down. The kid kept beating on his bowl. Just as my patience was about to reach my limits and I was about to step in, the mom very calmly and resolutely slapped the kid across the face and repeated, very gently still, “Didn’t I tell you to be quiet?””
“But adults who get mad over everything is also really scary.”
“Took my brat on the train. I had my period, so I was in so much pain I felt like I was going to die. My son somehow dropped his toys into the gap between the seat and the window, and he was leaning there, trying to fish them back out. I was in so much pain it felt like I was in hell, so I didn’t really pay a lot of attention to him, until a passing stewardess told me that my son was stuck. I even insisted, “He’s fine.” And the stewardess is like, “Take a look.” When I turned around, his whole entire upper body had gotten stuck between the seat and the window, with only his legs sticking out. I wanted to die right then and there. He’s not noisy, but he’s still annoying as fuck.”
“Whenever I cried as a little kid, my mom would slap me in the face. It got to the point that I would grab my mom’s arm whenever I started tearing up and try to reason with her, “Mom, mom, don’t hit me yet, I’m, I’m just upset, I’m not, not gonna cry.”
“The worst I’ve seen is when a brat on my street wanted to buy a toy, starting throwing himself on the ground, rolling around, and crying. I ended up walking behind him the whole way, and I saw his dad eventually break down and give him a solid kid. Sent the kid flying for two metres. Almost knocked two passers-by over. Then the kid finally shut up. Some kids really need a beating.”
“A couple of days ago, I feel asleep on the train, and a little boy started randomly screaming. Just as I was about to open my eyes, I heard my husband tell the kid, “If you don’t shut up, I’m going to beat you up.” The worst part is, the kid’s dad was also right there. Just as I was afraid they’d start fighting or something, the kid’s dad was like, “Did you hear? If you keep yelling, he’s gonna beat you to death.””
“I’ve met a mom with stupidophobia. She squeezed out a smile and very gently told her daughter, “Pick a seat and sit down. Once mommy’s done ordering food, I’ll join you.” But the little girl kept asking, “Where should I sit? Where should I sit?” Over and over again. And the smile just suddenly vanished off the mom’s face, and she yelled, “Sit on the ground!””
“One time, I was riding the bus, and there was a 5-6 year old boy who was screaming and running back and forth nonstop. Wouldn’t listen no matter what his parents said. Then his dad suddenly stood up and said, “Hey, everyone on the bus, come over and slap my son in the face. We’ll each slap him twice until he learns how to shut up.”
“On the subway, a little kid whispered to his mom that he was tired. I saw that he was a really good kid, so I stood up and gave my seat to him. The little kid’s mom told him to say thank you, but he was really shy, so he didn’t say anything to me. So his mom yanked him out of the seat and was like, “Don’t sit down if you’re not gonna say thank you.”
“Took my son out eating. The table behind us had a boy jumping up and down. And I heard his dad whisper to him, “I am seriously going to strangle you to death right here and now.””
“Just saw a relationship blogger get a submission for advice the other day, and it was pretty interesting. So the girl in question made about 8 figures a year. She’s in a long-distance relationship with her husband. Her husband used to be an actor, so he’s probably decently good-looking. After she had a kid, he quit his job to stay home and take care of their daughter.
Every time she calls her husband or meets him, her husband is always complaining about this or that. He’s full of negative energy. He never had anything positive to say, can’t provide any emotional value, and can’t help the girl in her career at all. Instead, he needs her to provide him with emotional support. So the girl is annoyed, and said that they really didn’t have any common languages left, and she’s sick and tired of this emotional black hole, so she wanted a divorce.
So the relationship blogger told her, “Just think of him as a babysitting robot. He just needs to do this one task well, and solve your problem of needing someone to take care of your kid. If you find a different guy, he’ll never be as responsible towards your kids as their biological father. You’ll find it even harder to throw yourself into your career without having to worry about what’s going on at home.”
Honestly, when I thought about it, a lot of women are stuck in the same situation as the guy in this story—good-looking, housewife, full time mom. But these women would provide some amount of emotional support to their husbands who are working too. They’d comfort their husbands, take care of their husbands, take care of his family. But when a man is taking care of children at home, he complains nonstop. Not only can he not provide any emotional support, he is the one demanding emotional support.
It’s the same case with Fu Shou’er [actress] and her husband.
Their advancement in their career was just too off-kilter. If the woman is the one who’s not doing well in her career, for the most part, they’re not so upset about it. But if the man is the one who’s not doing as well in his career, they feel wronged. They never feel gratitude towards their wife for making money and providing for the household.
This is actually a problem both men and women need to think about. If someone is running really fast, and someone is running really slow, then why should the one who’s running fast have to wait for the one who’s running slow?”

“There’s a lot of interesting stories. There’s another girl whose husband was a politician. And her paramour was a politician too. The paramour gave her a government project that she made 3 million off of. When her husband got jailed, her paramour helped get her husband back out. And the question she wanted to ask was that her paramour promised to buy her a gift before, but after he pulled her husband out of jail for her, he doesn’t want to buy her a gift anymore, how can she make him buy her that gift. I honestly rolf’d.”
“In Japan, they call houses where murders or suicides or other kinds of sudden deaths have happened “incident houses”. Basically what we call haunted houses. This type of housing is usually sold or rented for far lower than market price.
But most Japanese people are very superstitious about this sort of thing and don’t want to live in such a house, so they even have a dedicated website for looking up whether an “incident” has happened in a certain house or not.
But lately, more and more Japanese people are specifically looking for these kinds of houses to live in, because from their perspective, poverty is a lot scarier than ghosts.
There was a Japanese TV show that reported on a young couple who wanted to save a bit of money, and bought a haunted house on impulse.
This happened somewhere around Kansai. This newly wed couple had been dreaming of owning their own house. While they were house-hunting, the wife fell in love with a one-bedroom unit. She remarked several times, “This is my dream house!”
This house was only 10 minutes walk away from the nearest subway station, and is surrounded by commercial zones. It’s very conveniently situated. The insides had just been remodelled too, so it looked practically brand new. And most importantly, it was much cheaper than the surrounding units. This was more or less everybody’s dream house.
But…well, with how cheap it is, you knew there was bound to be a story to this house.
The real estate agent gave them an awkward smile and told them, “Well, this is actually an incident house.”
The previous owner was a man who’d murdered two women here. Finding out the truth, the wife hesitated, but the husband had already fallen in love with the low price. He comforted his wife, “It’s so cheap, we’ve got to buy it. It’s okay, nothing’s gonna happen.” Since she loved the house’s layout and decorations so much, they finally decided to buy this haunted house.
Soon, they packed up their things and moved in. The first year they lived there, nothing happened, and they slowly let down their guard. But just as they were about to forget they still lived in a haunted house, weird things started happening.
Doors would open on their own, even when all the windows were shut and there was no breeze. You could hear all kinds of strange noises at night that set your hair on end. Electricity went out randomly in the house, when all their neighbours still had power, and there was nothing wrong with the breaker.
The weird happenings piled up, plus it was a murder house to begin with, so the wife finally couldn’t bear with it any longer, “We shouldn’t have bought this place to begin with. Let’s move away.”
But the husband wouldn’t agree to it. The reason was very practical—they still had a mortgage to pay off. So, to ensure that his wife can keep living here at ease, the husband decided to hire some professionals to look around their house, see what the problem in. After checking the house all over, the professionals finally pulled up the floor boards and took a look underneath, and found the reason for all these weird happenings—ants.
The ants were responsible for everything.
The ants chewed up the frame of the house, so that the doorframes went out of alignment, and the doors didn’t close all the way. That’s why they’d swing open on their own. The weird noises they heard was the sound of the ants chewing on wood. They lost power because the ants chewed through their wires.
The couple let out a sigh of relief when they found out it was all caused by ants, and they hired an exterminator to deal with the problem.
Everyone thinks this is the end of the story, right? But no, we’re far from the end.
The exterminator went through the house very thoroughly. He even sprayed every corner of the yard. And as he was exterminating under their porch, he suddenly found two giant pieces of blue waterproof tarp. And it seemed like something was wrapped up behind it.
The brave husband went up and opened the tarp out of curiosity and confusion, and almost passed out right then and there.
Yes, that’s right. All my readers who watch true crime shows have probably already guess—
There wree two female skeletons inside the tarps.
The police investigated and found out that the original owner had murdered two women 15 years ago, and was never discovered. So the two bodies were buried in his yard the whole time. When he murdered again and got arrested, he didn’t confess to the police about the two girls he’d murdered all those years ago.
Nobody thought that those victims bodies would see the light of day again under these circumstances. Now that I think about it, maybe it was God’s will?
But honestly, the people who got screwed the most in all of this was still that couple.
They found the reason for their “hauntings”, but due to the large number of murders here, the house became a “double incident house”, and the value of their house fell even lower than what it was originally.
Since they weren’t done paying the mortgage yet, and there are no buyers willing to take over such an obviously haunted house, they had to keep living here…XD”
Comments say, “Couldn’t they get a refund? Or at least some kind of mortgage forgiveness? I mean, I guess to some extent, it’s kind of a blessing those bodies were eventually discovered.”
